It's not 'trolling', it's just my opinion. If you don't like it, tough luck.
I'm sure I'm getting drawn into an argument just for the sake of it here - you can't possibly believe that a 3 year old has any element of personal responsibility in terms of getting fat or not?!

Seriously, yes, in part. I'm not looking for an argument, because it's just my opinion, but surely a child of three or four or whatever knows that they are full and can stop eating at a point where they are full. It's just greed on the childs part to keep eating.
That's not to say I don't put the majority of the blame on the parents, but I also put a little pit of the blame on the kids.

Well it's certainly a ....different point of view to the norm - not one I've heard before and I'm probably unlikely to in the future!
IMHO it is totally the parent's fault - legally and ethically. A 3 year old child doesn't have the rational thought process to fully understand the consequences of their actions and as such is entirely dependent on the parents to act in their interests.
Since 3 year olds don't go shopping for food themselves (and really shouldn't ever be out of an adults sight), that means that it's the very adults that are supposed to be caring for them that are providing them with food.
The chances are that you understood being greedy at an early age because you were taught it by your parents. What if instead, you have been left in the corner to a bag of sweets every day because it kept you happy / quiet?

not really, it takes 20mins for anyone to register they are full. A child probably has less ability to assess when it is full. If it keeps eating, it is only because the parent has provided more food, if it wants junk food it is only because the parents have given it in the past. They don't know any different.
Maybe children have more animal instincts. They don't know when food will next be available since they can't provide for themselves so their animals instincts tell them to stock up.

I would think it's even more basic than that. If they like the taste of the food they will eat it, if they don't they won't. They're prob just acting on basic pain/pleasure. Expecting a 3 year old to make some sort of logical rational reasoning about eating too much makes you fat or ill is a bit strange in my mind.
NO! No more half ton Dad, no more fat kids, no more worlds largest woman, no more wolfman of Mexico, no more chinese men with tumors on their face, no more smallest people, no more freaky-deaky crap programmes.
I am better than this. I want to learn not watch the televisual equivalent of a human zoo. I want to laugh my tits off not watch american men have their tits cut off to reduce their weight from 70 stone to 50 stone.
Don't get me wrong, I feel sorry for (some) of the these people but I can feel sorry (for those worthy) from a 1 minute program not an hour long programme!
Am I the only one who hates these programmes?
And before you ask, it's the wife.
Another night of freak!
A dog that might be able to do maths....yeah, well my left testicle might be able to leap tall buildings.
"Possibly" the world's smallest man....well I "possibly" have the world's smallest interest in this insipid televisual creativity. Stop it 4 & Five!
